Every year, my boys look forward to the publication of the annual Ripley’s Believe It or Not! book. In fact, they are so crazy about Ripley’s that we had to be sure to visit the Ripley’s Museum in St. Augustine when we were there last summer. In the annual books, they love to look at the strange pictures and read the wild facts and stories. I like that they are willingly picking up a book!

This year’s edition is called Dare to Look! The 245 pages in this enormous full-color book feature things like:

Cyclops Goat

Squirrel Stuck in a Manhole

Snowboarding Opossum

Of course, there is much more than animals inside Dare to Look! Weird food, art, feats, sports, popular culture, bodies, and many other sights can be seen. (Justin Bieber’s portrait created out of cheese … let’s hear it for Justin “Brie-ber”!) It appears there’s nothing people won’t do for shock value!

You can also access bonus content by using Ripley’s special ODDscan app. For example, you might scan an image in the book (bonus features are marked by a special logo), which will take you to a video!

This book will be released on September 10, but if you CLICK HERE, you can pre-order it for the special Early Bird price of just $14.99 plus free shipping. That beats Amazon’s price (when I checked it today) by $6!

This year’s Ripley’s Believe It or Not! annual is more exciting than ever. I hope you’ll pick up a copy of Dare to Look! It makes a great gift for kids (and grown-ups) of all ages.CLICK HERE to download a BONUS CHAPTER!
